The Maine Central Railroad Co. are
making extensive repairs on the station
A new foundation is being laid for an ex.
tension of the building, which will bc
arranged when completed, so as To pro.
tect the passengers when entering the
cars in time of storm. The owners OF
the llartland road are building IA new
freight house.
The new addition to the Pioneer Wool
en- Mill is now nearly completed. and
will soon be supplied with new and i'm
proved machinery, increasing the pro-
ductivc capacity of the mill to large
extent. Business at present Is very brisk,
many OF the employees working over
hours.

One firm in this village will sell over
three hundred tons OF coal this season.
This is inclusive of the large quantities
used by the mills. Six or eight years ago
thirty tons represented the entire amount
consumed in the place. Wood is high,
and coal even at the preset high rate is
considered cheaper for fuel.
DIR. Pushor's house, corner of Park and

Some curious evidences of the diet Of
our prehistoric ancestors of the stone
age were recently brought before the
Chronological society Of Great Britain By
Mr.. Charters White Mr. White was
struck with the thought that, as particles
Of food become imprisoned in the dental
tartar sealed up in a calcareous cement,
and can be made To reveal themselves On
solution Of this material, it would he an
interesting revelation if the tartar found
on these teeth of the stone age could be
made to give up ts secrets in = similar man
ner. He accordingly decalcifled some with
dilute hydrochloric acid, and examined
the sediment. 1t consisted of masses com
posed Of epitheliul scales mixed with the
contents of starch cells. Besides these
Mr. White was able TO identify portions
of hlsks of corn hairs from the outside OF
the husks, spiral vessels from vegetables,
huslls Of starch, the point OF a fish $ tooth,
Il couglomeration of oval cells, probably OF
fruit hArblets of feathers, portions Of
wool and some fragments Of cartilage, To-
gethcr with some other organic remains
which he failed to recognize Tho fact
that vegetable tissue should be found il
such n state rs to be easily recognizable,
after lapse of probably not less than 3 ,00C
years, is certainly remarkable,
1t is to DO hoped Mr.. White will lose NJ
time in examining the teeth of Pharaoh
Rameses II, whose weh preserved mummy
now ornaments the Egyptian museum at
Cairo. The public is curious 70 know wha'
